Certainly (2) => (3), at least if you assume function extensionality; it
suffices to show that (\Sigma B, A ≃ B) is contractable, and since
contractibility and sigma respect equivalence, we can transfer the proof
that (\Sigma B, A = B) is contractable. I think the same is not true of
(1), though I'm not sure.
